Another occasional update

I really do only occasionally update these days, don't I?

I'm taking a bit of a vacation this weekend, as half the family has gone out of town and it's just me and the 16-year-old, who is quite low-maintenance. So last night I started to catch up on some of my comic reading. That means I read three trades: New Avengers: Powerloss (including NA 55-60), Dark Avengers: Molecule Man (DA 9-12), and Final Crisis: Rogues Revenge.

I've actually really enjoyed the Dark Avengers title, and since I also always liked the Molecule Man as a character this one was fun, and not a bad treatment of him. Norman Osborn would be more interesting if he didn't have the hero musculature. Fun seeing some of Victoria Hand's background.

Enjoyed the bit in NA where Cap/Bucky comes home to see what a mess Wolverine has made of his place. :) But man, the Hood still makes me yawn.

But I have to say that Rogues Revenge was probably the best of the lot, particularly since not only did I enjoy it the most, but before reading it I couldn't really have cared less about almost all the characters in it. Now...well, I wouldn't buy a Rogues ongoing, but I'd get another mini. (Well, I'd buy the trade when it came out, but you get my point.)

I've got a few more books in my read-it stack, but I'm not sure when I'll get to them.
